Mícheál my good man. Genuinely just coming around this evening but I've been thinking of this message since Sunday morning. Thank you so much for everything on Saturday night. You were absolutely insane and I've no other way to word it. Everyone from the youngest to the oldest in the room were talking about you. I do really hope ye get gigs out of it as there was a crowd in the room yet to be married who were asking straight away who ye were. Genuinely made the night all that more special. Thanks so much. Please tell the lads the same- hope the drive home wasn't too bad 🙈😅

Words are not enough to describe how amazing The Wilful are. They really did have our dancefloor full all night. The energy they brought to our wedding was amazing. We were able to choose our set lists beforehand and to ensure all groups were catered for we chose a variety from 90's dance to Irish Country songs. Each set list was as good as the last and the transition between genres was seamless. Communication from Micheál and his team in the lead up to our wedding was brilliant. The Wilful were not a band we or any of our guests had heard of before but so many of our guests have asked about them since. We have had lots of comments from our guests about how amazing The Wilful were and how they never usually dance at weddings but couldn't leave the dancefloor. Thank you so much to you all.

What can we say about the Wilful. They are one the best bands we have seen at any wedding and thankfully it was our wedding. From the first time contacting them they have been supper helpful and genuinely lovely guys when you meet them. We have never seen so many people dancing at a wedding, to the detriment of the dj set cause everyone was wrecked!!! We got so many compliments about the band and everyone said they were brilliant and asking us where we found them. Would highly recommend booking the lads for your wedding, you won’t be sorry.

Hi Micheál. It's coming up on a couple of weeks since our wedding on the 9th of July in Markree.
We just wanted to say thank you again. We cannot express how happy we were with you guys, lots of our guests are still talking about how amazing you were. It was an epic night and we have you to thank for that. I just need to find an excuse to book you again.. lol!

Thank you so much for being incredible at our wedding. The energy from start to finish was amazing, dance floor was bopping all night. Guests are still asking who the band was and they never danced so much. They were so nice to deal with from the start, no ask was too big or too small. Will be going to one of their gigs agains soon. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting high energy, lots of dancing, something for everyone and just sound lads. Thanks!

Lads we just want to say a massive massive thank you for making our day amazing, everyone there asked ?where did you find them??!
I told hardly anyone what type of stuff you guys do, so it blew their minds.
I'm still not able to walk from all the dancing.
Please tell the boys, we are so thankful. You made the whole day, and it's hard to convey in words just how much.
Unbelievable!!
Thank you and see you soon!

Our guests are still raving about how much they enjoyed the music and the dancing and the locals amongst them intend to make your showcases a regular night out.

Thanks so much for everything, for being so patient when our timings for yer start time were off and for adding so much to our day. We would highly recommend ye to anyone in need of a brilliant band!

We had an absolutely brilliant day at the wedding- so many of our guests commented on how great the music was! It really added to the day and made all the difference. You would have thought you regularly play the first dance song - it went off absolutely beautifully. Better than Van Morrison himself :) Thanks again for being a part of our special day! We will certainly be recommending you to all our family and friends!
